• Q: How to Replace the Rear Sunroof Cable Assembly on 2006 Cadillac SRX?

  A: The rear sunroof window cable assembly replacement process starts with removing the rear vent window and center window panel and rear sunshade assembly. You must remove screws holding either the right or left track to the sunroof frame while releasing the drive tube retainer from the track. After lowering the track into the passenger area users should carefully remove both the rear vent window cam assembly from the track and the rear vent window cable assembly from the track. When installing the rear window track operate by sliding the bullet end of the rear vent window cable assembly into the track and driving the cable assembly until its bullet reach passes through the track. Drive the cable into the drive tube while carefully pushing until the cam assembly lines up with the opposite side cam position in the track. Push the drive tube retainer onto the rear track while matching the cable assembly cam pin with the cam block of the lower sunroof frame. Securely place the track against the lower sunroof frame before installing its rear track assembly screws loosely. Usage of a torque wrench to secure track position within the drive tube retainers reaches 5 n.m torque strength (44 lb in) measured across the tracks for parallel alignment. Finish your installation by adding the rear sunshade assembly along with the rear sunroof vent window and center window panel. Then execute the sunroof rear vent window/sunshade initialization steps.
